The garden is full of life

We have so many baby chipmunks about we cannot keep up with them. They are everywhere you look. Here are some pics:

We have also had the hummingbirds coming and going. This is a photo of the female – not too good, but they are fast!

And here is a stunning moth we found on our porch. He is anĀ Automeris io moth according to Wiki

 

 

 

Baby bunny nearly beheaded

Chris has been out this morning mowing the garden and then started the edges with the strimmer. Suddenly he banged on the door telling me to come out quick. Wondering what on earth was wrong I shot out to where he was pointing at this tiny bunny huddled in the grass. He came so close to being sliced with the strimmer, he was very lucky Chris spotted him in time.

You can see how really tiny he is when I picked him up to put him a little further along the deck out of harms way.

We had noticed one of the rabbits sitting on the deck and running round it only this morning – maybe this is why!
